Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Piano Santal Eau de Parfum
This is a love-it-or-hate-it sandalwood. For some, it's a creamy, sophisticated dream, but for others, the cumin and ambroxan turn into a challenging, even 'urinal' experience. Definitely sample before committing.
Statement
Our Verdict - Abyssis Eau de Parfum
This is a seriously divisive scent. Some say it's an atmospheric masterpiece that captures the deep, moody ocean, while others find it simply repulsive. Definitely not for the faint of heart, or for a blind buy.

Season and Occasion Fit

Piano Santal Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its intimate sillage and comforting woody-lactonic profile make it suitable for dates and casual wear, drawing people in without overwhelming. It's too complex and potentially divisive for the office, and certainly not for sport due to its warm, rich character.

Abyssis Eau de Parfum

Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Autumn

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date Sport

Its bold, marine character and potential for strong sillage make it less suited for a conservative office environment. However, its unique and intriguing profile, often described as dark or seductive, lends itself well to casual wear and dates, particularly in warmer months, as long as it's applied judiciously.
